On this Special Report, Rajdeep Sardesai leads a panel discussion on the shifting political landscape of Maharashtra following recent municipal and local election results. The discussion features Sahil Joshi, Yashwant Deshmukh, and Girish Kuber, who analyze the emergence of Devendra Fadnavis as the state’s dominant leader. Sardesai notes, ‘Is Hindutva plus Vikas now the winning formula?’ as the panel explores how the BJP has successfully combined infrastructure development with ideological posturing. The experts highlight the decline of traditional allies like Eknath Shinde and Ajit Pawar, suggesting they have ‘taken a hit’ while the BJP consolidates power. The program also examines the Congress party’s struggle to maintain its relevance against the BJP’s strategic targeting of local leaders. Furthermore, the panel discusses the ‘normalization’ of Hindutva politics in a state historically known for the progressive values of Phule, Shahu, and Ambedkar, concluding that Maharashtra is increasingly moving toward a right-wing political duopoly.
